Members cem Posted May 7, 2008 Members Report Posted May 7, 2008 I have an Aztek airbrush I really like it but it might not be to everyones taste you can check it out here www.micromark.com item number 82887. There are two versions the metal one and a polymer plastic, ive had both and found the plastic one was too light so I sold it. I used to paint silicone stop motion puppets and had to change colours alot so this airbrush suited me as it can be flushed out quickly and you don't have to worry about damaging the needle as it is enclosed in the detachable tip, I also got the cleaning station to assist with quicker cleaning. I bought mine about four years ago and remember Micromark was about the cheapest couldn't believe it when my local hobby shop was selling it for $600 AUD. Cheers, Clair Quote
Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted May 17, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted May 17, 2008 Tom, I've got a Paasche VL that I'm relearning to use, and I love it. The kit has 3 size needle/tips included. That outta cover all the needs, and it is a siphon feed model. If you're not sure you want to go with that much investment to check it out, here's a link you might find useful click me. They've also got an external mix brush for under $10 that I thought would be great for applying finishes (no clogging the tip).
